It's bittersweet to wrap up yet another roaring SteveWeek here at HooM! The anniversary of Steve Marriott's death was Monday, and five Humble Pie-packed days later, we bookend nicely with some movie news, seemingly unrelated. Or is it? Cuz director Sam Peckinpah, also prematurely dead, would strangle somebody if he were alive to witness the forthcoming remake of his masterpiece Straw Dogs. Which will be set in the deep South, not rural England like the original and pretty much all creepy, rainy movies. So the connection to Marriott is a similar situation concerning Mr. Big (ack!) and their cover of Humble Pie's "30 Days In The Hole" on their dreadful 1989 debut. Oh sorry I meant dread ... fully great first album. Happy!
